With aLembert suture of catgut attach the surface of the gall-bladder all aroundthe tube to the tube. Leave the ends of this last suture long, and with a needleattach them to the parietal peritoneum. The advantages of this procedure are: (a) The purse-string suture preventsleakage of bile around the drainage-tube, (b) When the tube is withdrawn,the inversion of the bladder wound leaves serous surfaces in contact, there isno prolapse of mucous membrane, and hence closure of the fistula is numerous small calculi and much biliary san
